Mango Banana Smoothie

If you love smoothies for breakfast or as a healthy snack, you will love this delicious Mango Banana Smoothie recipe!

I am a smoothie girl. I love starting my day off with a green smoothie. I usually have 1-2 a day. My husband is the green smoothie maker at our house though. He gets up at 4:45 a.m. every morning for work and makes a double or triple batch and leaves me one or two in the refrigerator for breakfast and lunch. Isn’t he a sweetie? Right now we have a garden full of spinach and kale so he just goes out to the garden each morning and cuts his own greens. I am going to have to get him to do a guest post here on the blog to share how he makes them every morning because I am never awake when he does!! I do love to use my blender though to make fruit smoothies. I love to try different combinations of fruit, usually whatever I happen to have on hand or in the freezer. A few weeks ago I bought a big bag of frozen mango at the Costco so I decided to use it in a smoothie. I was in the mood for something tropical. The best thing about a smoothie is you can just figure it out as you go. Use what you have on hand and go by taste! I also had some bananas and pineapple juice so I added those in too. I added in some Honey Greek Yogurt and ice and then just blended away. I just added in more juice until I got the consistency I like.

I love smoothies! I have a green smoothie every morning for breakfast, too! That said, I was excited to see what #8’s recipe was . . . it doesn’t look like the healthy chocolate shake that it says it is! But, I loved that recipe nonetheless and may make it sometime. And your mango smoothie just looks so creamy and delicious. I buy the frozen mango chunks as well because there isn’t much worse than trying to slice a mango. In a few recipes, I have just used mango baby food. I am all for easy work.

I have a kitchenaid blender that is about 12 years old and ready to retire, so this would be the perfect replacement! I just love frozen mango in my smoothies, I haven’t tried the pineapple juice yet. It sounds delicious 🙂
